This blog post will hopefully help with it. I chose 2 really yummy desserts/snacks to help you through the first few days back at work and/or gym – running – yoga…. you name it!

Both are super easy, no baking required – just awesome, delicious and healthy ingredients!

Vegan chocolate protein truffles:

Ingredients:

2.5 ripe bananas

150g almonds

150g shredded coconut

50g dried blueberries

50g dried cherries

20g organic cacao powder

some extra cacao for the coating of the ready truffles

Method:

Place the almonds and dried fruit in a food processor and process until well chopped.

Use a fork to mash the bananas, first add the cacao powder, then the coconut and the chopped fruit with the almonds. Once you mixed them all, shape medium sized truffle balls and cover them in the extra cacao. Keep them in the fridge! Enjoy x

Walnutty slices

Ingredients

250g prunes

100g dates

150g activated walnuts (to ‘activate’ them – soak them for a couple of hours in filtered water and let them dry)

pinch of organic vanilla powder

150g walnut pieces

Raw chocolate ingredients:

50g raw cacao butter

15g raw cacao powder

15g agave syrup

Method

Melt the cacao butter and mix in the cacao powder and agave syrup over steam to create the raw chocolate.

Use a food processor or blender to chop the prunes, dates and activated walnuts. Mix in the raw chocolate and walnut pieces. Create 2 bars and place them in the freezer for half an hour. After this it will be easy to slice them. You can keep it in the fridge, although you might not have a chance to put anything in the fridge as it’s just too yum 😉

Hope you’ll enjoy them either pre or post exercise as your healthy afternoon pick me up or even breakkie.
